New Green Car
Where Do You Live?
The Riversimple urban car actually has a very small fuel cell and looks like it is going to be the smallest one to date so far.
It depends on what kind of car you are interested in but if you are into the smaller cars you will love this as it is no bigger than the smart car. It is actually quite a good car for someone living in a city as it can reach a top speed of 50mph which isnt bad for a car of this type.
The power in this car actually comes from a very small 6kw fuel cell which is actually very small compared to the 100kw in the Honda Clarity. it is very important to keep the weight down on this car as it allows the speed of the car to be heavily increased.
Another big point to this car is that it allows you to store a lot of electricty within it which means you can get the most out of accelerating power.
One of the really good things about the design to this new car is that once it is all ready it will be made available online for any car manufacturer to take into their own.
One of the great things is that you can lease this car and the lease will actually cover you for the cost of the fuel too.
Hugo Spowers, head of Riversimple, said: "Cars evolved under very different constraints to those of today, so we must move on. Of course we now realise that we much minimize the resource source of selling cars which is what these cars are trying to do.”
“The Riversimple Urban Car represents a major step towards practical 21st century personal transport and towards the fulfilment of my great-grandfather’s ambitions for accessible personal transport but this time combining his other passions: light weight and high efficiency,” said Piech.
The real question to ask is will they be upgrading things like used cars to make them greener? If you have recently gone out and purchased a Audi TT Roadster then you are not going to be pleased when you cannot upgrade it to make it a bit greener. New Audi are just one of the brands that needs to be looked into.
